    Man the entire hood is a different size. the fenders are different also, along with everything else.

    you realize vis makes them for your body style too right?
    blown transmissions are about as useful as 97% of the guys on this forum

    someone on ss had a vis hood a long time ago . it looked good but there isnt much more to them it had a small scoop but nothing like the nice looking hoods out there. they also only use the top layer of carbon fiber with fiberglass under it. youll get the look but not the weight .

    ive looked too but no luck , if like to have a lightweight tonnoeu made since its so dam heavy. 6k lbs at the strip sucks but thats how "STREET" trucks do it.

    If you find one that fits your body style correctly, you can scuff the resin on the bottom side and use a super strength epoxy to attach some brackets and mount the stock hinges on there.
